Overview

Mainhill is a handsome detached property offering five bedrooms and a wealth of elegantly appointed accommodation arranged over three levels. Situated within easy reach of the centre of the desirable market town of Duns, the property dates from 1866 and holds Category C listed status. It retains many attractive original features, complemented by modern improvements including new double-glazed sash and case windows.

From the welcoming entrance hall, two comfortable reception rooms lie to the front of the house. The sitting room and dining room both feature splendid bay windows, ornate corniced ceilings and fireplaces with log-burning stoves. Towards the rear, the generous kitchen dining room provides an excellent sociable space, with tiled flooring, farmhouse-style units, granite worktops, gas hob and AGA, together with space for a breakfast table and French doors opening onto the gardens. The rear hallway gives access to a useful utility room/wet room, walk-in pantry and stairs to the cellar, providing further storage.

On the first floor, the light and airy landing leads to a beautifully presented drawing room with dual aspect and log-burning stove, together with three bedrooms. These include the spacious principal bedroom and a second double, both with built-in storage, plus a further bedroom currently suited to use as a home office. Two shower rooms serve this floor, while the stairs continue to the second floor, where there are two further bedrooms, a home office and family bathroom, together with substantial attic storage.

This property has 0.5 acres of land.
